Method

1. Place pears in a saucepan, add the honey and spices and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook pears partially covered for 20-30 minutes. They should be soft, but not disintegrated.

2. To make the pikelets - whisk egg whites until stiff peaks form. Add remaining ingredients. Mix well. Place a large fry pan on a medium heat and add equal quantities of butter and coconut oil to the pan. Pour spoonfuls of the mixture onto the pan and flip as each pikelet turns a light brown colour.
